favorite time to be fishing is in a really tough tournament. Anyone can
catch fish when they're biting, the trick is to catch em when they're not
biting."

I totally agree. Learning how to provoke a reactionary strike when the bite
is off is very cool. But so is knowing where and how to always find some
active fish is even better. Now, all I have to do is learn how ;-) Which
is the same problem 99.5% of all anglers face.

They say that at any time only 10% of the all the water in a lake is right
to support life. Now, that is a lot of dead (unproductive) water. Further
compound that with poor conditions, and we as anglers are faced with only
about 1% of all the water in a lake being right to support activity (just a
personal theory). Talk about finding a needle in a hay stack I say the
word LUCK goes along with the SKILL at that point. For in a pro tournament
you have a lot very talented and skilled anglers who know where the most
active fish SHOULD BE, so the deciding factor - LUCK or being LUCKY.
